Corporate Sustainability

There is a growing desire from corporates to understand, optimize and manage their resource use (energy, water, waste, feedstocks / supply chains, etc.), limit environmental risks, reduce carbon footprints and understand sustainability progress

Corporate sustainability planning, implementation, tracking and reporting becoming professionalized and widespread

Carbon intelligence and reporting is becoming “good business” for many corporates and increasingly a regulatory driven requirement (TCFD, etc). This has birthed a broad emissions management category and created a new regulatory & compliance services market

We believe there is a large investment opportunity around the emergence of “office of the Chief Sustainability Officer” tools, akin to the emergence of “office of the CFO” tools in the mid 2010s. Corporate sustainability software and white-collar professional services help firms understand pain points like resource use, worker safety, product safety and environmental liability/risk

Re-use and recycling becoming cost-competitive and preferred by corporates in many instances, circular economy opportunities in industrial waste, materials and fuels

Water scarcity, quality and security increasingly a focus of all corporates, utilities and their stakeholders. Major capital investment and digital transformation needs to ensure ample potable, industrial and non-potable water to meet global growth.

Select areas of focus: white collar technical / professional services; emissions measurement, reporting & verification; testing, inspection & certification; private waste and industrial / municipal water infrastructure; EHS software & services; regulatory & compliance tools
